Free Energy Blog:2013:11:11 - Laser Power Systems, a U.S. company based out of Connecticut is developing a method of automotive propulsion using the element thorium to produce electricity. The results far surpass anything currently powering automobiles. (Free Energy Blog November 11, 2013)

Latest: Directory:Alternative Fuels > Directory:Air Cars > Directory:Air Fuel Synthesis - A British company has produced a "petrol from air" technology that they suppose is poised to solve the energy crisis while removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The very fact that the mainstream press is giving it wide coverage tells you that it is not likely to be transformational. (PESWiki October 24, 2012)

Directory:Trends > Directory:Zeitgeist > The Year in Energy - Surprising successes helped offset disappointing failures in solar, biofuels, and nuclear power. This was supposed to be a big year for energy-related technology. Fukushima set back nuclear. In 2011, average prices for solar panels dropped by almost 50 percent from 2010 levels.

Directory:Alternative Fuels > Directory:Biofuels > Directory:Ethanol > Directory:Ethanol > Record Food Prices Linked to Biofuels - The biofuels industry is being blamed for record food prices and high price volatility. Earlier this month a report from the World Trade Organization and other international agencies recommended that governments cut support for biofuels to ease that volatility. Next, the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued its corn forecast, suggesting that corn supplies will be very tight this year.... After the report, corn prices shot to record highs.

Directory:Alternative Fuels > Directory:Alternative Fuels > The power to move... out of thin air (link fixed) - John Fleming of Texas Tech U. has invented a $200 electrolyzer that he uses to generate hydrogen from water, which he combines with nitrogen from air, to make ammonia using a compression and decompression system. Ammonia is an energy-dense fuel which can power a smaller engine compared to conventional. He claims 76% efficiency on the electrolyzer and a final fuel cost of $1.00 per gallon!

Directory:Biofuels > Directory:Algae > Directory:Biodiesel from Algae Oil > Solar + Water + C02 = Diesel? - Joule Biotechnologies and its competitors are attempting to utilize proprietary microorganisms that turn photons, water, and C02 directly into drop-in fuels. Their systems have a "solar converter" which can be thought of as solar walls (but not cells) that absorb photons while managing optical density so their proprietary bugs get all the photons they need.

Directory:Water as Fuel > Water (H20) is our 21st Century fuel - Hollywood films such as "Chain Reaction" and "The Saint" have depicted story lines built around the idea of a revolutionary power source arrived at through water H20, becoming freely available for all to use around the Globe. What if that Hollywood story line turned out to be closer to the truth and rather than being a work of fiction it would change the real world we live in forever. (Carbon Good Guys)

Directory:Natural Gas > Could Cowpower Replace Horsepower On The Rally Circuit? - Cow manure is a leading contributor of nitrous oxide and ammonia into the atmosphere, adding heartily to global warming. Cars provide their own fair share of noxious fumes. But a British team of engineers and racers is working on a way to kill two birds with one stone by developing a race car that can run on cow manure. (Gas 2.0 Oct. 13, 2009)

Directory:Biofuel > Directory:Algae > Commercial green fuel from algae still as much as a decade away - Breakthroughs are still needed in finding the right strain of algae among thousands of species that will produce high yields designing systems where the desired algae can multiply and other species don't invade and disrupt the process and extracting its oils without degrading other parts of the algae that can be made into side products and sold as well.
